COACH Shaun McRae admits to be frustrated by Salford’s season-long failure to play to their full potential.

Having been among the Super League elite the previous season, expectations of a full-time Salford side were always going to be high this year.

The Reds are flying high in National League One and they are in the semi-finals of the Northern Rail Cup but it is their performance levels that is causing concerns.

McRae said: "We have a talented squad capable of going all the way this year. But there is a lot more in us than has been on show. Some players are turning up one week and not the next and I can’t explain it.

"When we sort things out we will be a formidable team. Sides are going to be in a lot of bother if we actually come out and play well."

Director of football Steve Simms said: "We are just not clicking as a unit. As individuals we are doing lots of good things but this needs to be done as a team effort."
